How much did you pay for tickets? I thought about riding out the stadium when they’re back in Houston to see if I can snag a single.

The SB Nation "fan" site of the Braves, Talking Chop, is the absolute worst, as usual. I have long loathed that place, as it is a sissy pit for woke liberals to gather and pontificate on how awful "old timers" in the game are, to push social justice BS and virtue signal about whatever issue of the day is.

They have a headline on their site today on what "damage" the chop is causing today.


Yeah that was garbage. None of the TC writers actually wrote that piece (someone from main SB Nation site did) but TC shouldn't have even linked it. That was bad.

TC is a fantastic source to get prospect info. Easily my go to for that.

Can we get any of the lib Braves fans thoughts on this? I know they were pro rebranding of other sports teams.


As a moderate I'll chime in.

Redskins - Objectively racist term. Didn't really give a shite. Can understand outrage on that one.
Indians - outdated inaccurate term that was born from the white man's ignorance that's somewhat offensive but I don't really give a shite.
Chiefs / Braves - not offensive and cancel culture pussies have gone way too fricking far. Anyone who's sitting around crying about positive stereotypes like attributing bravery to native Americans needs to stop crying and change their diaper.

Pretty much my thoughts as well. I’ve always thought the old Indians logo was cool since first watching Major League as a kid but I can definitely see how the red faced over the top Indian caricature logo could be offensive to some. If the Cleveland fans are cool with switching to Guardians then more power to them.

People bitching about the Braves/Chiefs/FSU are fricking insane and wake up looking to be offended by something.

The day y’all gave up on tomahawk chop & let it get shortened to just Chop is the day y’all lost this war.

That’s what I’m curious about. Does the stadium prompt the chant still or is it all on the fans now?

It is objectively racist. But is it more racist than Notre Dame's drunken, violent leprechaun?
